The sun slowly crept up in the sky, bathing the landscape in a silvery pink hue. As the horizon began to light up, a small figure emerged from the shadows, walking slowly and deliberately. He was carrying a large bundle on his back, and he was headed in one direction: north.  He had been travelling for days, and was determined to reach his destination: a distant land known only as the Promised Land.
 
The journey was long and arduous, but the young man was driven by a powerful force: hope. His face was grim, but in his heart, he held onto a spark of joy, because he knew that behind the horizon, something amazing was waiting for him. He just had to make it.
As he trekked through the wilderness, the sun continued its slow ascent, signalling the start of another day, and he kept putting one foot in front of the other, one step closer to his destiny.
